Data hk is an open source project that provides free public data from local government, companies, and other sources. It provides a variety of tools to help users make informed decisions and understand the world around them. Its database is constantly growing and includes information about Hong Kong businesses, people, and the environment. Its data is available in a variety of formats, including text, tables, charts, maps, and geo-referenced images.
Hong Kong’s personal data protection law PDPO regulates the collection, processing, holding, and use of individuals’ personal data. It establishes data subject rights, specific obligations on the part of data controllers, and six data protection principles. The PDPO has extra-territorial application, meaning it is enforceable outside of Hong Kong. Its rules are based on international data protection standards and best practices, but the territory is still working to bring its laws into line with those of other countries.
While the government is considering modernising the data protection framework, business owners should ensure that they are fully aware of their obligations under the current regime. This is particularly important for businesses that process data about individuals, or that collect data that could be used to identify them. This could include social media platforms, financial institutions, and online retailers.
